I urgently needed iron infusion during my third trimester of pregnancy, and many of the haematologists or clinics that I spoke to were unable to help me with this urgent request. Dr Newman and his PA Jude helped me with navigating the difficult situation - they contacted different hospitals and managed to arrange a hospital to admit me. Thank you for helping me in this difficult and tricky time! Thank you Dr Newman for listening to me and addressing my concerns!

Felt relaxed during my appointment and able to completely go through how I had been feeling, not rushed and found Dr Newman to be compassionate and understanding, the process of the need of blood tests and a CT scan was explained fully - really felt at ease with Dr Newman and left feeling a little less anxious than I had been feeling of late.

Upon arrival at The Physicians Clinic, all staff were warm and welcoming. Dr Newman was equally professional and attentive; he asked the relevant questions, listened carefully to my medical history, and reviewed both the referral letter and my blood test results. We discussed my medical history in detail and he clearly explained the next steps. He was also accommodating in arranging for the required tests to be carried out at the London Hospital, which is more convenient for me due to its proximity to my office. This is currently being coordinated by his medical secretary.
